Frequently asked questions

What is the recommended amplifier power for FINESPL measurements?

The maximum amplifier power can be low, even 10-20W, as a high-power amplifier may accidentally damage loudspeakers.

What value should be used for the series resistor in impedance measurements?

A low value resistor around 1 ohm should be used in series with the loudspeaker.

How should the Cosine Window Out/End be set for impedance measurements?

The Cosine Window Out/End should always be set to the maximum value of 9600.
